Getting to 86 Prelude 2.0si EGR

    Hello all,

    My idle is pretty rough and wandering after warm-up and after cleaning
    out the IACV I figure the next step is to try and clean the EGR valve.
    The only problem is, it is surrounded by all kinds of pipes and hoses
    from the intake and vacuum (or possibly just the vacuum) systems. I
    can't even get a socket with an extension down on it because of the
    width of the top of the valve overshadows the bolts at the bottom of it
    and the aforementioned hoses are on the other side. Does anyone have
    experience getting to the damn thing? Any advice? I can post pictures
    if necessary.

    Thanks,
    Bil

    with a honda, if it goes on, it also comes off.

    with a little reach-around, there's sufficient room to use a normal
    combination wrench. i suggest the ring, not open end as these bolts
    tend to get very stiff.
